Superchameleon (2006)

"So much has already been written about Iva Bittova, about her multi-genre music and talent. As the DVD title suggests, it reveals many sides of her ever-changing musical character. The DVD is divided into three parts. The first is an exceptional, ninety-minute concert with the New York-based contemporary music ensemble Bang On A Can All-Stars, performing repertoire from the collaborative album "Elida". However, the programme opened with Iva Bittová just voice, violin and solo magic performing material from her past and present. The DVDs second part is its selections from the Czech Television archives. Totalling some sixty minutes, this material captures Iva Bittova in varying incarnations and in a variety of projects rock, folk, folkloric and classical. The oldest footage is with the band Manana from 1984. Other performances include collaborations with the Czech string quartet, the Skampovo kvarteto (Skampa Quartet), the Czech band Dunaj, the Dutch group N.B.E. and Pavel Fajt." (Indies Scope)
